The gpio-syscon.c is for simple syscons where the lines
you want to affect are nicely ordered in the registers.
It is intended to be generic.

This is kind of shoehorning a special case into the generic
code.

Isn't it more appropriate to create a specific driver for this
hardware?

Special get/set quirks for any possible quirky offset is
certainly not the way to go, if this should be supported
we need generic properties in struct syscon_gpio_data
to indicate the valid bits and offsets.

Yours,
